corrupt performance charts

An example of a distorted performance chart.

http://www.hardwarezone.com.au/revie...70&cid=2&pg=16

The shortest bar is supposed to be 1.0 and the longest bar is supposed
to be 1.72 (but in fact the longest bar is well over twice the length
of the shortest bar).

I think most people reading these articles are smart enough to be looking at
the values not the length of the bars.

Greater intelligence causes a person to ignore appearances?
